Mike McGrath used to edit Organic Gardening back when it spent more time
talking about gardening and less about how evil (fill in the blank) was. His
dismissal over disparaging a deep pockets chemical company lead to the end
of the magazine I think.


I dearly remember the old Organic Gardening and Farming, and miss it
and Mike's writings in it. I do read him in Green Prints, but OG has
never been the same. I get that now because I'm a member of the New
England Wildflower Society - I'd rather they stuck to the lovely mugs
they gave us each year, or the prints. OG is a waste of celluloid
now.


Yeah, that is a shame. I had a friend of my father's give me a huge
box full of the original A4 format OGM and when I escaped from New
York I got rid of them. I sure do wish I'd have thought that one
through. All that information is more than likely still relavant. I
also used to love the OG show on PBS. When Mike left OG the show was
no longer fun. Shame.
